Chapter 9

DDR Memory Controller

9.1 Introduction

The fully programmable DDR SDRAM controller supports most JEDEC standard ×8, ×16, ×32, or ×64

DDR2 and DDR memories available. In addition, unbuffered and registered DIMMs are supported.

However, mixing different memory types or unbuffered and registered DIMMs in the same system is not

supported. Built-in error checking and correction (ECC) ensures very low bit-error rates for reliable

high-frequency operation. Dynamic power management and auto-precharge modes simplify memory

system design. A large set of special features, including ECC error injection, support rapid system debug.

NOTE

In this chapter, the word ‘bank’ refers to a physical bank specified by a chip

select; ‘logical bank’ refers to one of the four or eight sub-banks in each

SDRAM chip. A sub-bank is specified by the 2 or 3 bits on the bank address

(MBA) pins during a memory access.

9.2 Features

The DDR memory controller includes these distinctive features:

• Support for DDR2 and DDR SDRAM

• 64-/72-bit SDRAM data bus, for DDR and DDR2

• Programmable settings for meeting all SDRAM timing parameters

• Support for the following SDRAM configurations:

— As many as four physical banks (chip selects), each bank independently addressable

– 64-Mbit to -Gbit devices depending on internal device configuration with ×8/×16/×32 data

ports (no direct ×4 support)

— Unbuffered and registered DIMMs

• Chip select interleaving support

• Support for data mask signals and read-modify-write for sub-double-word writes. Note that a

read-modify-write sequence is only necessary when ECC is enabled.

• Support for double-bit error detection and single-bit error correction ECC (8-bit check word across

or 64-bit data)

• Open page management (dedicated entry for each logical bank)

• Automatic DRAM initialization sequence or software-controlled initialization sequence

• Automatic DRAM data initialization

• Support for up to eight posted refreshes

• Memory controller clock frequency of two times the SDRAM clock with support for sleep power

management

• Support for error injection

9.2.1 Modes of Operation

The DDR memory controller supports the following modes:

• Dynamic power management mode. The DDR memory controller can reduce power consumption

by negating the SDRAM CKE signal when no transactions are pending to the SDRAM.

• Auto-precharge mode. Clearing DDR_SDRAM_INTERVAL[BSTOPRE] causes the memory

controller to issue an auto-precharge command with every read or write transaction.

Auto-precharge mode can be enabled for separate chip selects by setting

CSn_CONFIG[AP_n_EN].

9.3 External Signal Descriptions

This section provides descriptions of the DDR memory controller’s external signals. It describes each

signal’s behavior when the signal is asserted or negated and when the signal is an input or an output.

9.3.1 Signals Overview

Memory controller signals are grouped as follows:

• Memory interface signals

• Clock signals

• Debug signals

Table 9-1 shows how DDR memory controller external signals are grouped. The device

hardware

specification has a pinout diagram showing pin numbers. It also lists all electrical and mechanical

specifications.

Freescale Semiconductor 13

MDQS[0:8] I/O Data strobes. Inputs with read data, outputs with write data.

O As outputs, the data strobes are driven by the DDR memory controller during a write transaction. The

memory controller always drives these signals low unless a read has been issued and incoming data

strobes are expected. This keeps the data strobes from floating high when there are no transactions on

the DRAM interface.

State

Meaning

Asserted/Negated—Driven high when positive capture data is transmitted and driven low

when negative capture data is transmitted. Centered in the data “eye” for writes;

coincident with the data eye for reads. Treated as a clock. Data is valid when signals

toggle. See

Table 9-36 for byte lane assignments.

T

iming Assertion/Negation (for DDR1)—If a WRITE command is registered at clock edge n, data

strobes at the DRAM assert centered in the data eye on clock edge n + 1. See the

JEDEC DDR SDRAM specification for more information.

Assertion/Negation (for DDR2)—If a WRITE command is registered at clock edge n, and the

latency is programmed in TIMING_CFG_2[WR_LAT] to be m clocks, data strobes at the

DRAM assert coincident with the data on clock edge

n

+

m

. See the JEDEC DDR SDRAM

specification for more information.

I As inputs, the data strobes are driven by the external DDR SDRAMs during a read transaction. The data

strobes are used by the memory controller to synchronize data latching.

State

Meaning

Asserted/Negated—Driven high when positive capture data is received and driven low when

negative capture data is received. Centered in the data eye for writes; coincident with

the data eye for reads. Treated as a clock. Data is valid when signals toggle. See

Table 9-36 for byte lane assignments.

Timing Assertion/Negation—If a READ command is registered at clock edge n, and the latency is

programmed in TIMING_CFG_1[CASLAT] to be m clocks, data strobes at the DRAM

assert coincident with the data on clock edge n + m. See the JEDEC DDR SDRAM

specification for more information.

MECC[0:7] I/O Error checking and correcting codes. Input and output signals for the DDR controller’s bidirectional ECC

bus. MECC[0:5] function in both normal and debug modes.

O As normal mode outputs, the ECC signals represent the state of ECC driven by the DDR controller on

writes. As debug mode outputs MECC[0:5] provide source ID and data-valid information. See

Section 9.5.10, “Error Checking and Correcting (ECC),” for more details.

State

Meaning

Asserted/Negated—Represents the state of ECC being driven by the DDR controller on

writes.

Timing Assertion/Negation—Same timing as MDQ

High impedance—Same timing as MDQ

I As inputs, the ECC signals represent the state of ECC driven by the SDRAM devices on reads.

State

Meaning

Asserted/Negated—Represents the state of ECC being driven by the DDR SDRAMs on

reads.

MA[14:0] O Address bus. Memory controller outputs for the address to the DRAM. MA[14:0] carry 15 of the address

bits for the DDR memory interface corresponding to the row and column address bits. MA0 is the lsb of

the address output from the memory controller.

State

Meaning

Asserted/Negated—Represents the address driven by the DDR memory controller. Contains

different portions of the address depending on the memory size and the DRAM

command being issued by the memory controller. See

Table 9-40 Table 9-41 for a

c

omplete description of the mapping of these signals.

Timing Assertion/Negation—The address lines are only driven when the controller has a command

scheduled to issue on the address/CMD bus; otherwise they will be at high-Z. It is valid

when a transaction is driven to DRAM (when MCSn is active).

High impedance—When the memory controller is disabled

MBA[2:0] O Logical bank address. Outputs that drive the logical (or internal) bank address pins of the SDRAM. Each

SDRAM supports four or eight addressable logical sub-banks. Bit zero of the memory controller’s output

bank address must be connected to bit zero of the SDRAM’s input bank address. MBA0, the

least-significant bit of the three bank address signals, is asserted during the mode register set command

to specify the extended mode register.

State

Meaning

Asserted/Negated—Selects the DDR SDRAM logical (or internal) bank to be activated during

the row address phase and selects the SDRAM internal bank for the read or write

operation during the column address phase of the memory access. Table 9-40

Table 9-41 describes the mapping of these signals in all cases.

Timing Assertion/Negation—Same timing as MAn

High impedance—Same timing as MAn

write transactions. See Table 9-48 for more information on the states required on MCAS

for various other SDRAM commands.

Negated—The column address is not guaranteed to be valid.

Timing Assertion/Negation—Assertion and negation timing is directed by the values described in

Section 9.4.1.4, “DDR SDRAM Timing Configuration 0 (TIMING_CFG_0),”

Section 9.4.1.5, “DDR SDRAM Timing Configuration 1 (TIMING_CFG_1),”

Section 9.4.1.6, “DDR SDRAM Timing Configuration 2 (TIMING_CFG_2),” and

Section 9.4.1.3, “DDR SDRAM Timing Configuration 3 (TIMING_CFG_3).”

High impedance—MCAS is always driven unless the memory controller is disabled.

MRAS O Row address strobe. Active-low SDRAM address multiplexing signal. Asserted for activate commands.

In addition; used for mode register set commands and refresh commands.

State

Meaning

Asserted—Indicates that a valid SDRAM row address is on the address bus for read and

write transactions. See Table 9-48 for more information on the states required on MRAS

for various other SDRAM commands.

Negated—The row address is not guaranteed to be valid.

Timing Assertion/Negation—Assertion and negation timing is directed by the values described in

Section 9.4.1.4, “DDR SDRAM Timing Configuration 0 (TIMING_CFG_0),”

Section 9.4.1.5, “DDR SDRAM Timing Configuration 1 (TIMING_CFG_1),”

Section 9.4.1.6, “DDR SDRAM Timing Configuration 2 (TIMING_CFG_2),” and

Section 9.4.1.3, “DDR SDRAM Timing Configuration 3 (TIMING_CFG_3).”

State

Meaning

Asserted—Selects a physical SDRAM bank to perform a memory operation as described in

Section 9.4.1.1, “Chip Select Memory Bounds (CSn_BNDS),” and Section 9.4.1.2,

“Chip Select Configuration (CSn_CONFIG).” The DDR controller asserts one of the

MCS[0:3] signals to begin a memory cycle.

Negated—Indicates no SDRAM action during the current cycle.

Timing Assertion/Negation—Asserted to signal any new transaction to the SDRAM. The transaction

must adhere to the timing constraints set in TIMING_CFG_0–TIMING_CFG_3.

High impedance—Always driven unless the memory controller is disabled.

MWE O Write enable. Asserted when a write transaction is issued to the SDRAM. This is also used for mode

registers set commands and precharge commands.

State

Meaning

Asserted—Indicates a memory write operation. See Table 9-48 for more information on the

states required on MWE for various other SDRAM commands.

Negated—Indicates a memory read operation.

Timing Assertion/Negation—Similar timing as MRAS and MCAS. Used for write commands.

High impedance—MWE is always driven unless the memory controller is disabled.

MDM[0:8] O DDR SDRAM data output mask. Masks unwanted bytes of data transferred during a write. They are

needed to support sub-burst-size transactions (such as single-byte writes) on SDRAM where all I/O

occurs in multi-byte bursts. MDM0 corresponds to the most significant byte (MSB) and MDM7

corresponds to the LSB, while MDM8 corresponds to the ECC byte. Table 9-36 shows byte lane

encodings.

State

Meaning

Asserted—Prevents writing to DDR SDRAM. Asserted when data is written to DRAM if the

corresponding byte(s) should be masked for the write. Note that the MDMn signals are

active-high for the DDR controller. MDMn is part of the DDR command encoding.

Negated—Allows the corresponding byte to be read from or written to the SDRAM.

Timing Assertion/Negation—Same timing as MDQx as outputs.

High impedance—Always driven unless the memory controller is disabled.

MODT[0:3] O On-Die termination. Memory controller outputs for the ODT to the DRAM. MODT[0:3] represents the

on-die termination for the associated data, data masks, ECC, and data strobes.

State

Meaning

Asserted/Negated—Represents the ODT driven by the DDR memory controller.

Timing Assertion/Negation—Driven in accordance with JEDEC DRAM specifications for on-die

termination timings. It is configured through the CSn_CONFIG[ODT_RD_CFG] and

CSn_CONFIG[ODT_WR_CFG] fields.

High impedance—Always driven.

MDIC[0:1] I/O Driver impedance calibration. Note that the MDIC signals require the use of resistors; MDIC0 must be

pulled to GND, while MDIC1 must be pulled to GV

DD

. See

Section 5.3.2.8, “DDR Control Driver Register

(

DDRCDR),” for more information on these signals.

State

Meaning

These pins are used for automatic calibration of the DDR IOs.

Timing These are driven for four DRAM cycles at a time while the DDR controller is executing the

automatic driver compensation.

9.3.2.3 Debug Signals

The debug signals MSRCID[0:4] and MDVAL have no function in normal DDR controller operation. A

detailed description of these signals can be found in Section 5.3.2.7, “Debug Configuration.”

9.4 Memory Map/Register Definition

Table 9-5 shows the register memory map for the DDR memory controller.

In this table and in the register figures and field descriptions, the following access definitions apply:

• Reserved fields are always ignored for the purposes of determining access type.

• R/W, R, and W (read/write, read only, and write only) indicate that all the non-reserved fields in a

register have the same access type.

• w1c indicates that all of the non-reserved fields in a register are cleared by writing ones to them.

• Mixed indicates a combination of access types.

• Special is used when no other category applies. In this case the register figure and field description

table should be read carefully.

Signal I/O Description

MCK[0:5],

MCK[0:5]

O DRAM clock outputs and their complements.

State

Meaning

Asserted/Negated—The JEDEC DDR SDRAM specifications require true and complement

clocks. A clock edge is seen by the SDRAM when the true and complement cross.

Timing Assertion/Negation—Timing is controlled by the DDR_CLK_CNTL register at offset 0x130.

MCKE[0:1] O Clock enable. Output signals used as the clock enables to the SDRAM. MCKE[0:1] can be negated to stop

clocking the DDR SDRAM. The MCKE signals should be connected to the same rank of memory as the

corresponding MCS and MODT signals. For example, MCKE[0] should be connected to the same rank of

memory as MCS[0] and MODT[0].

State

Meaning

Asserted—Clocking to the SDRAM is enabled.

Negated—Clocking to the SDRAM is disabled and the SDRAM should ignore signal transitions

on MCK or MCK. MCK/MCK are don’t cares while MCKE[0:1] are negated.

Timing Assertion/Negation—Asserted when DDR_SDRAM_CFG[MEM_EN] is set. Can be negated

when entering dynamic power management or self refresh. Are asserted again when

exiting dynamic power management or self refresh.

High impedance—Always driven.

9.4.1 Register Descriptions

This section describes the DDR memory controller registers. Shading indicates reserved fields that should

not be written.

9.4.1.1 Chip Select Memory Bounds (CSn_BNDS)

The chip select bounds registers (CSn_BNDS) define the starting and ending address of the memory space

that corresponds to the individual chip selects. Note that the size specified in CSn_BNDS should equal the

size of physical DRAM. Also, note that EAn must be greater than or equal to SAn.

If chip select interleaving is enabled, all fields in the lower interleaved chip select are used, and the other

chip selects’ bounds registers are unused. For example, if chip selects 0 and 1 are interleaved, all fields in

CS0_BNDS are used, and all fields in CS1_BNDS are unused.

CSn_BNDS are shown in Figure 9-2.

Table 9-6 describes the CSn_B

NDS register fields.

9.4.1.2 Chip Select Configuration (CSn_CONFIG)

The chip select configuration (CSn_CONFIG) registers shown in Figure 9-3 enable the DDR chip selects

and set the number of row and column bits used for each chip select. These registers should be loaded with

the correct number of row and column bits for each SDRAM. Because CSn_CONFIG[ROW_BITS_CS_n,

COL_BITS_CS_n] establish address multiplexing, the user should take great care to set these values

correctly.

If chip select interleaving is enabled, then all fields in the lower interleaved chip select are used, and the

other registers’ fields are unused, with the exception of the ODT_RD_CFG and ODT_WR_CFG fields.

For example, if chip selects 0 and 1 are interleaved, all fields in CS0_CONFIG are used, but only the

ODT_RD_CFG and ODT_WR_CFG fields in CS1_CONFIG are used.
